Flapper Dress Amulet Bag
This was fun but used lots and lots of seed beads. The body (striped part) was done on a tube loom, something I will never use again. I then started to embellish and got carried away with many layers of fringe. Seed beads used include transparent orange, opaque off white and opaque orange striped. The ends of the longest fringe are finished with opaque ivory glass wafers. The ends of the ivory fringe are finished with Delica glass tear drops (gold, red lined) as are some of the fringes on the neckpiece. Other fringes include ivory glass flowers and amber glass drops. The neckpiece, strung on Soft Flex wire, is made up of 6mm light amber Czech glass beads and 11° opaque Ivory beads.
